Hard to believe he was only 82.
He is probably setting up one heck of a concert at the great gig in the sky.All I am offering is the truth... nothing more...

I did think it was rather strange that he still did the New Year party after the stroke. Made it somewhat awkward to watch to be honest.
Oh well, rest in peace.Lawdog - "That may be the dirtiest thing anyone has ever said on here."
